In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the egg whites and yolks are fully combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the bottom of the skillet.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes or until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently lift the cooked edges and tilt the pan to allow the uncooked eggs to flow towards the edges.
Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, frequently lifting the edges, until the eggs are mostly set but still a bit soft on the top.
Using the spatula, carefully fold one half of the egg over the other, like an omelet. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to ensure the center is fully cooked.
Remove the folded egg from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Let it cool slightly.
Using a sharp knife, slice the folded egg into thin strips.
Sprinkle the chives over the egg strips and serve immediately as a garnish or topping for your favorite dish.
